Google Nexus S failure during longer calls is now official

Nexus S users have been complaining about their phone rebooting during calls longer than 3 minutes, but up until recently Google did not admit the issue publicly. It has now been successfully reproduced by a Google employee and hopefully a fix will come out soon.

The phone sometimes restarts with no apparent reason in some circumstances, but more often during longer calls.

It is not yet clear whether it is a software related problem or a hardware one.
Being a Gingerbread issue would be much more convenient for the phone, while a hardware problem would mean one of the biggest Google fail in a long time
Best Buy 's 2 two week return policy is ending pretty fast, so people have little time to think about what to do.
